Daniel is the head librarian at the University of South Carolina, Salkehatchie at Allendale and Walterboro. He learned about the Brier Creek Battleground in 1996 when he was editor of the Sylvania Telephone.

Williams Introduction is continuing romantic sentiment in bringing to public * view old manuscript accounts of the personal experiences of Therethose who participated in the early struggles of this history- rich tri-state area. The Western Pennsylvania Historical Magazine recently published an orderly book, a journal, and two maps that all fitted together to identify most of the route and camping sites of Colonel Bouquet's march against the Ohio Indian towns in 1764. 1 Now we find, as always in historical study, that events and facts are interwoven and correlated in surprising ways. We are reminded that the Great Trail, that "Indian thorofare" of the forest, which Bouquet opened up as a road for his small army, was retraced, 2 worn deeper, and further hallowed by the fatigue and Mr. Williams, a graduate of Bucknell University and a member of this Society, is well-known to the readers of The Western Pennsylvania His- torical Magazine through the editing of the Bouquet Orderly Book of the 1 764 expedition into Ohio.

  • Slavery and the Framework of the Social History of Eighteenth Century Georgia
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by UNCG Hosted Online Journals (The University of North Carolina at Greensboro) Journal of Backcountry Studies Wheels Within Wheels: Slavery and the Framework of the Social History of Eighteenth Century Georgia BY ROBERT SCOTT DAVIS In the last few years, British historians have illustrated how the social history of colonial Georgia played a larger role on the world stage than it has previously been given credit. Hugh Bicheno’s writings on slaves expecting the British military to take them from Tybee Island to freedom in 1775 appeared in Richard Holmes’ documentary on the American Revolution. Simon Schama has written upon the international consequences of the first African-American Baptist church’s establishment in Georgia, a subject that he touches upon in his television series.1 Much more could and should be available on those particular events, beyond their recent notoriety in history as portrayed on television but scholarship on colonial Georgia as a whole has lacked analysis until the early 1970s when, as historian George C. Rogers Jr. wrote, scholars finally began to pick up its scattered pieces to find its hidden importance. Here much of that work will be used to outline the new social history of the thirteenth British colony with an emphasis on its widespread significance.2 Slavery and the manumission of African slaves in early Georgia, for example, came from within a heritage that predated, provided an alternative to, and would challenge the Enlightenment. The modern scholarship has shown that the colony and the state of Georgia in the eighteenth Century went through complex periods from 1735 to 1798 wherein slaves and freedmen would become issues wherein they were banned, encouraged, and treated in very different ways respectively.

  • More Than a Botanist: William Bartram's Impact Upon The
    Matt Peek MORE THAN A BOTANIST: WILLIAM BARTRAM’S IMPACT UPON THE HISTORY OF COLONIAL GEORGIA MATT PEEK This paper received the Hines Award. It was written for Dr. Shirley’s Senior Seminar course. Georgia’s early history is full of remarkable individuals and events. Most people know of the founding of the colony by James Oglethorpe, Georgia’s involvement in the Revolutionary War, and the drafting of the Constitution. There are many influ- ential people in early Georgia history, however, that have gone relatively unnoticed. While much attention is devoted to politics, warfare, and religion in the study of Georgia history, very few historians have ventured into the realm of natural history in Georgia. As one of the first American naturalists, William Bartram traveled throughout much of Georgia, documenting his explorations and providing some of the earliest descriptions of flora and fauna, Native American life, and colonial Georgian life during the early Revolutionary period. Bartram was not the first to study the land and wildlife of Georgia. The first to do so were the early explorers of the six- teenth century from Spain and France, such as Hernando de Soto and Jean Ribault.i As time progressed and Georgia became colonized and inhabited, exploration continued, espe- cially into the backcountry.ii In the latter half of the seventeenth century, explorers such as Henry Woodard and James Moore traveled throughout Georgia exploring its rivers and tributaries.iii Most of these exploratory missions were cartographical, howev- er, and many of the details of these early Georgian adventures were poorly recorded or have been lost.iv Thus, they are of very limited use in the study of Georgia’s natural history.

  • Introduction: Optional Activities: March 05, 1727: Lachlan Mcintosh Born Daily Activity
    March 05, 1727: Lachlan McIntosh Born Daily Activity Introduction: The daily activities created for each of the Today in Georgia History segments are designed to meet the Georgia Performance Standards for Reading Across the Curriculum, and Grade Eight: Georgia Studies. For each date, educators can choose from three optional activities differentiated for various levels of student ability. Each activity focuses on engaging the student in context specific vocabulary and improving the student’s ability to communicate about historical topics. One suggestion is to use the Today in Georgia History video segments and daily activities as a “bell ringer” at the beginning of each class period. Using the same activity daily provides consistency and structure for the students and may help teachers utilize the first 15-20 minutes of class more effectively. Optional Activities: Level 1: Provide the students with the vocabulary list and have them use their textbook, a dictionary, or other teacher provided materials to define each term. After watching the video, have the students write a complete sentence for each of the vocabulary terms. Student created sentences should reflect the meaning of the word based on the context of the video segment. Have students share a sampling of sentences as a way to check for understanding. Level 2: Provide the students with the vocabulary list for that day’s segment before watching the video and have them guess the meaning of each word based on their previous knowledge. The teacher may choose to let the students work alone or in groups. After watching the video, have the students revise their definitions to better reflect the meaning of the words based on the context of the video.

  • Would Not Hate the Indians of Waller's Book? Surely a Proper
    Book Reviews 55 Waller points out, the westward thrust of settlement scattered population, creating a “new kind of weakness.’’ The links between ultimate military success and political and social de- velopments in the West thus appear to be more complicated than Waller allows. Perhaps such “profundities” are out of place in a bi- centennial history. Perhaps the only way to write a book about American “heroes” is to focus on military operations, no matter how trivial and no matter how complicated and compromised the motives of the protagonists. Yet if Ameri- cans celebrate “heroic” soldiers following “their leaders on seemingly hopeless missions, enduring privation and danger’’ (p. 31), must their Indian enemies always “lurk about” com- mitting acts of unimaginable savagery on defenseless women and children? Must Indian soldiers be described as “unstable, vacillating, and unreliable” (p. 31) ? Waller admits that “Indian-hating” whites committed some atrocities, but who would not hate the Indians of Waller’s book? Surely a proper bicentennial history can celebrate the heroism and recognize the humanity of all American peoples.
